If
you
are
interested
in
history
and
have
the
ability
to
be
reflective
and
imaginative,
this
is
worth
it.
Don't
pay
attention
to
reviews
that
suggest
the
drive
up
is
scary
or
dangerous.
It's
well
paved
and,
as
long
as
you're
a
safe,
focused,
observant
driver,
you
won't
have
a
problem.
(And
it
isn't
that
steep.
My
hybrid
made
it
up
without
any
problem
at
all.)
Here's
the
thing:
the
cave
is
small
and
has
a
steel
grate
protecting
it,
but
you
can
look
inside
and
carefully
take
pics
if
you
want.
If
you
are
easily
bored
or
have
kids
that
are,
you'll
need
to
prepare
yourself
or
them
for
this
by
talking
up
the
importance
of
engaging
your
imagination
to
enrich
the
experience
of
seeing
it
in
person:
What
would
it
have
been
like
to
be
there
thousands
of
years
ago?
What
would
a
shaman
do
in
this
space?
Why?
How?
The
white
ink
was
made
from
crushed
shells,
but
this
cave
is
high
in
the
mountains.
How
did
the
shells
get
from
the
coast
into
the
cave?
Etc.
Honestly,
you'll
spend
more
time
driving
to
the
cave
than
looking
at
it,
but
it
can
be
worth
it
if
you
are
interested
enough.
(A
trip
to
the
Natural
History
Museum
afterward
can
deepen
the
experience
post
cave-viewing,
as
the
Chumash
culture
is
highlighted
there.)
